Ancestral geneology of SEC people

I haven't been here long, but I doubt this is an overused offseason topic, so you can start giving me credit already.
Obviously most SEC people are from Europe and Africa. More specifically, lots of Scotch Irish among the white folks, and I have no idea which African countries (this thread will help us drill down on that).
But I think we should start with Texas A&M and Mizzou fans.
Mizzou fans are originally from Germany, or as my father always said "those damn Germans in Missouri." Dad's a longtime Cardinals fan, per old KMOX radio like the rest of mid America, but that doesn't mean he likes Germans. Let's just say it like it is: My dad don't like damn Germans. I do know, for a fact, that some of them use Stove Top stuffing on Thanksgiving. So on that fact alone, my dad is correct.
A&M fans arrived in Texas on a boat that wheeled it's way down the coast and around the Gulf from Iceland or Nova Scotia. This was before Ponce de Leon.
(before or after Cajuns? I don't know)
Real Texans hated Aggies from the start, and I've heard they still do. I did sit among Aggies last year, and I'll say they were great people for the most part. But..., Nova Scotians are basically just English, which means Aggies are loyal to the crown of England, and should not be welcome in America. Nice as they are, they need to go.
Let's go ahead and do Vandy real quick. They're from everywhere, alot of Ohio I think, so I don't know what to say here. I'll leave the Vandy mess alone, except to say I've seen alot of strippers in Nashville and they seemed to be Scotch Irish.
Who wants to take Kentucky and South Carolina next? dirty aubie?

I would assume anglo-saxon for around 75% of the SEC East
ETA: nvm I forgot we had Mizzou and their German heritage throws my numbers out the window

East TN was predominately settled by the Scotch-Irish.

East TN is very Scotch-Irish for the most part.
Decent amount of Germans behind that

I suspect Argonian miscegenation amongst the Arkansas faithful.

This is a map identifying where 2013 Vanderbilt undergraduates came from.
More from New York and New Jersey (combined) than from Tennessee.

Nope. We're all from Mexico

I would guess that cornmeal, oil, and pork byproducts would be the ancestral origins of the LSU folks.

East Tennesseans (Appalachia) are Scot-Irish decents. Everybody else in the SEC are Anglo-Saxons or Germans I guess.

Kentucky was a county of Virginia when the east coast was being settled so there are a great many of us descended from the British Isles.
I had my DNA analyzed and discovered I'm 95% Irish and 5% Norwegian. My family's American lineage dates back to 1741 so a person of Norwegian descent worked his or her way in there at some point.

The South Carolina Lowcountry was/is primarily Anglo-Saxon with a strong French Huguenot influence as well as Scots-Irish. Charleston was a huge port so it was a bit of a melting pot. The Upstate was greatly influenced by the Scots-Irish due to the Great Wagon Road.

Mississippi is mostly Scot-Irish, and Italian mixed with Choctaw.

Sounds like he's jealous of our genetic superiority.

I'm originally from the DC metro area but my ancestors were slaves in Mississippi. A few years ago our family used DNA to trace our roots back to what is present day Sierra Leone. The slave ship was likely a schooner that arrived somewhere on the Georgia coast circa 1839.

Oglethorpe brought debtors from England to settle Ga. The hard-core criminal element of this group went to Alabama. They migrated past Columbus and Auburn on westward to the Tuscaloosa area . Over the years they have managed to stay out of trouble by
